Envy No One

In my early twenties, in a conversation with a wise friend who is 20 years my senior, I started whining about the life I didn’t have. When I finished, she patiently pointed out that envy and jealously weren’t my most attractive traits. Then she said: If everyone in the world had to put their troubles […]

Rethink What You Think Matters

Some things do matter. Illness and Death are big matters. Having an income matters and it’s very stressful when money seems to be flowing in the wrong direction. But other than these, not much else really matters. What you said or neglected to; how you acted or didn’t; what your wore; that expression on someone […]

At “Enough” We Share

At some point while venturing through our individual journeys, we realize that others really can’t give us everything we think we want. When this realization dawns on us, the temptation arises to abandon that person (or situation) in search of something or someone different. The problem begins because we think  that another’s inability to fulfill […]

Believe in Others

Disclaimer: I know this is going to inspire a lot of emotion—both positive and negative. I look forward to reading each and every comment. When I think of youth, I think of innocence. That time in our lives when as children, we believed whatever we were told. Children tend to approach others with openness and […]

Turn the Page

Whether it’s Bob Seger’s original song or Metallica’s cover, whenever “Turn the Page” comes on the radio, my mood gets infinitely better…while painfully to the ears of others, I start singing along 😉 In life, there always comes a time, sometimes many times, when you have to choose between turning the page or closing the […]

Power Play

Almost twenty-five hundred years ago Plato wrote: ‘You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.’ With insights like that it’s no wonder the guy is still a philosophical rock star today. Without play, we become dull, tired and worn out. Sometimes we resist the idea […]

Owning Our Eccentricity

I’ve always gravitated towards eccentric people. A dictionary search defines eccentricity as unconventional and slightly strange behavior. Strange is defined as unsettling and hard to understand. Personally — I define eccentricity as any and every form of self-expression from bowties and suites to tattoos and mohawks because it all depends on individual persuasion. Depending upon […]

Age as an Automotive Anaology

I think we should refer to age in auto racing terms. Horsepower is the total power output of our engines, while torque measures the “turning or torquing ability” of the engine. Practically, torque is a better measurement of how quickly your car will accelerate, while horsepower (relative to weight) is a better measure of your car’s top […]

No Dummies…No “Just” Anything

The most societally undervalued benefits of age are the priceless intangibles that accrue from taking care of others, while managing the ebbs and flow of day-to-day living. Several years ago I wanted to hire a personal assistant. I received over 100+ resumes and almost all had the typical office skills I needed. Yet, one fascinating […]
